Would a yearly comprehensive travel insurance policy be cheaper than a separate policy for each trip.
Hi Paul,
Thanks for your question.
It will depend on the level of cover and the insurer you choose to go with. We have a page that compares the cost of a single trip policy with that of an annual insurance for multi-trips. These costs were correct as of September 2015, so while these costs may have changed they should give you a general idea of where you’ll find the best value.
Please make sure to read the eligibility criteria, features, and details of the policy, as well as the relevant Product Disclosure Statement of the policy before making a decision and consider whether the product is right for you. If necessary, speak to the insurance brand to verify any details.
I hope this was helpful,
Richard
